The Sensible Environmentalist
Five years in the making, Greenpeace co-founder Patrick Moore’s
new book and speaking topic, Confessions of a Greenpeace
Dropout: The Making of a Sensible Environmentalist, has arrived.

“Dr. Patrick Moore has always believed
in a practical, straightforward approach
to environmental problem-solving. In
these challenging times, I think that’s
exactly the kind of environmental
leadership people are looking for.
...Patrick’s great talent is his ability
to clearly set out the environmental
challenges we face and identify
innovative solutions that fully take
into account both people and the
environment. Through our work
together, I’ve found Patrick has the
courage of his convictions as he
helps chart a practical course toward
sustainability.”
Rudy Giuliani
Former Mayor of New York City

From energy independence to climate change, genetic engineering
to aquaculture, Moore sheds new light on some of the most
controversial subjects in the news today. Moore’s presentation is
also a fascinating account of his many years spent as the ultimate
Greenpeace insider. He delves into why, after 15 years, he decided
to leave Greenpeace to establish a more sensible, science-based
approach to environmentalism.
An informed, provocative speaker, Dr. Moore persuasively
argues that we need to rethink our conventional wisdom about
the environment and inspires new ways of thinking about
environmental challenges.

The

Environmentalist
Confessions of a Greenpeace Dropout - Agriculture and Health
Dr. Patrick Moore has played a prominent role in raising environmentalism to the forefront of public
concern in Canada and throughout the world. Based on his book, Confessions of a Greenpeace Dropout,
Moore details his vision for a more sustainable world. One of his greatest talents is his ability to
clearly set out the environmental challenges we face and identify innovative solutions. His principle
beliefs for the agriculture and health industry are based on logic and known scientific facts, avoiding
sensationalism, and scare tactics:
1. Genetic science, including genetic engineering, will improve nutrition and end malnutrition,
improve crop yields, reduce the environmental impact of farming, and make people and the
environment healthier.
2. Many activist campaigns designed to make us fear useful chemicals are based on misinformation
and unwarranted fear.
3. Aquaculture, including salmon and shrimp farming, will be one of our most important future
sources of healthy food. It will also take pressure off depleted wild fish stocks and will employ millions
of people productively.
4. Poverty is the worst environmental problem. Wealth and urbanization will stabilize the human
population. Agriculture should be mechanized throughout the developing world. Disease and
malnutrition can be largely eliminated by the application of modern technology. Health care,
sanitation, literacy, and electrification should be provided to everyone.
